In the Shadow of Women

“A tightly focused romantic drama that exudes the narrative terseness of a good short story and the lucid craftsmanship of a filmmaker in full command of the medium.”~Variety

Filmed in black-and-white, this one tells the story of a couple who make low-budget documentaries and live off odd jobs, but whose relationship is tested with the arrival of a young trainee.
